1. Basketweaving Supplies: Consider gifting him a basketweaving supply kit that includes a variety of materials such as reeds, willow branches, tools, and patterns. This will enable him to experiment with new designs and techniques, and further develop his basketweaving skills.

2. Basketweaving Books: Look for books that focus on advanced basketweaving techniques, provide inspiration from renowned basketweavers, or delve into the cultural significance of basketry. These books can serve as guides for your husband's creative process, helping him refine his craft and explore new ideas.

3. Basketweaving Classes or Workshops: Check if there are local or online basketweaving classes or workshops available that your husband can attend. This will allow him to learn from experienced instructors, gain new insights, and connect with fellow basketweavers. Such classes can be a wonderful opportunity for him to take his skills to the next level and nurture his passion.

“It was such a sentimental and romantic present for my husband's birthday (since he is so into astronomy and the moon on the background). The order came super well packaged, and now it is the gem in the basement :)”
